Study Notes
- A solid of revolution is a curve that has been rotated about a given axis.
- The cross-sectional area of a solid of revolution is a function of the axis of rotation.
- If we rotate about a horizontal axis, the cross-sectional area is a function of (x).
- If we rotate about a vertical axis, the cross-sectional area is a function of (y).
- The method of disks or the method of rings can be used to determine the cross-sectional area of a solid of revolution.
